is there a way for a marker to automatically insert 0 in all unanswered questions of a quiz?
Hi there! For Quizzes, any unanswered question gets zero points automatically, even if it is an essay response. So there isn't a need to do anything extra on the instructor side of things. However, maybe I'm not understanding your question; if so, please provide some additional information so folks can help answer!
The essay type questions, these don't have an auto zero in the mark box, the other automark questions have a zero but not the essay questions as you can see in the picture below.
Thank you for clarifying @Ms_Lawless! On the student side, it will show that they have received zero points for the question, but in Speedgrader it does show the dashes since it is something that is manually graded by the instructor. Unfortunately I am not aware of a way for Speedgrader to change those to zeros for unanswered questions, but I think that would be a great recommendation to Canvas for something they could improve. Consider recommending the idea to Instructure!

Hoping someone can explain for me. We're using pacing to avoid manually dating regular assignments each quarter, but the dates I see are based on when the course was instantiated, while students see dates based on when they were added to the course by [backend software I don't know anything about, presumably]. If I set…

Ours is currently in the form of an email that already exists, becoming a new user - and not automatically merging with the user ID with the same email that also is linked to our SIS ID correctly as well. For example, user 1 is xyz@gmail.com without a…
Canvas Portfolios provide a powerful platform for students to document their learning journey, reflect on their progress, and showcase competencies. However, in programs where multiple educators are involved in assessment—such as team teaching, moderation, or competency-based evaluation—there are important questions about…
I have a student that was in a tag called "ac" and recently moved him to a different tag, "AC." I did ensure the old tag was removed; however on a canvas PAGE he sees both pages the "ac" and "AC" Canvas Pages. I removed the assigned tags to the page and the one tag to the student thinking maybe if I remove and reassign…
